individually tailored information on the road, adapted to suit the current
driving situation, making every MINI trip even safer, more comfortable and more
exciting than ever before.

The
system is clever by all means, it knows the driver's preferred route, reminds
him when it is time to refuel, messages him about impending appointments or
planned telephone calls, reports traffic information in real time, assists in
locating parking spaces, and directs the driver on foot to his final

April 2014. To use the system, the vehicle must be equipped with the Wired
